The Memcached distributed memory object caching system is employed by some of the most frequently visited sites on the Internet and is supported by famous CMSs like Joomla and WordPress.

Node.js

Node.js is a platform for building scalable network apps. Built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime, Node.js uses an event-driven, asynchronous input/output model that makes it lightweight and efficient, excellent for high-performance data-heavy applications. Node.js uses Google's V8 JavaScript engine, libUV, and a number of built-in libraries.

InnoDB

InnoDB is the default database engine for the MySQL open-source relational database management system. A database engine is the principal software component that a database management system uses to create, read, update and delete data from a database. The latest release of InnoDB features significant improvements in efficiency, reliability and functionality. InnoDB provides the standard ACID-compliant transaction attributes, along with foreign key support. It is included by default in most binaries distributed by MySQL AB.
